Item Description
Description
This vintage hand-knotted rug from the Hamadan region of northwest Iran presents a striking central medallion set within a deep red field, framed by ivory spandrels and rich indigo borders. The palette blends saturated reds, dark blues, ivory, and warm terracotta, creating layered contrast typical of mid-20th-century village weaving. The design features angular floral motifs, rosettes, and vine forms arranged with clear structural balance, reflecting the characteristic Hamadan aesthetic known for durability and expressive pattern geometry. The border system, composed of repeating rosettes and diamond patterns, strengthens the visual rhythm and anchors the layout. The wool pile appears dense and resilient, consistent with the region’s long tradition of robust village craftsmanship. This piece represents classic northwest Persian weaving heritage, offering strong decorative impact and authentic handmade character.
